1970s Aled Couture Gold Black and Silver Lame Dress with Oversized Belt

Very striking 1970s couture made Art Deco inspired dress made from a metallic lame knit in a gold, silver and black geometric block print. The dress has a wide straight collar, is sleeveless and front fastening. The button stand hosts some fabulous circular textured gold buttons. The dress gently flare flares out to around ankle length and cinches in at the waist with a stylish fabric belt with an oversized gold plated double belt clip, very much in the style of Cardin! There are two handy concealed side pockets and the overall look is a delight; this would add instant glamour worn as resort wear or to a high class social event. Such is the versatility, the dress could be paired with a lightweight turtle neck jumper in colder seasons.

Labelled 'Aled Couture, Made in Israel' and we can only assume, given the quality of the fabrics and finishes, that this was a very high end bespoke made piece. It is
in really fabulous vintage condition with no faults of any note and it has generous seam allowances. It will fit up to a UK size 12 to 14 but due to the nature of the design and the belt, it would also fit smaller options.
